Key terms

Donation
Voluntary support for a creator. In Vantemio it is a crypto transfer straight to their wallet.
USDC
A digital dollar (a stablecoin): 1 USDC is worth about 1 US dollar.
Network fee
The payment to the blockchain for a transfer. Your wallet shows and charges it, and Vantemio does not receive it.
Network confirmation
The transfer being recorded on the blockchain. After that, it cannot be cancelled.

Step by step

  1. 01

    Scan the QR code on the stream

    During the stream, the creator shows a Vantemio QR code labelled “Donate to the streamer” (number 1). Scan it with your phone camera or the scanner in your wallet app. The creator’s donation page opens.

    The viewer does not need to sign up: the payment is confirmed in your own wallet.

    Tip. Scan the code only from the creator’s own broadcast. A QR code from comments or private messages can lead to someone else’s address.

  2. 02

    Choose a coin and an amount

    Choose a coin (number 1): USDC, SOL or BTC. Then the amount (number 2), for example 10 USDC. The network (number 3) matches the coin: USDC goes on the Base network, SOL on Solana and BTC on Bitcoin.

    Your wallet must support that network: for Base, any EVM wallet will do (MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, Rabby); for Solana, Phantom or Solflare; for Bitcoin, Unisat or OKX.

    Tip. If you do not have the coin you need, you can get it by swapping or bridging between networks in Vantemio Swap.

  3. 03

    Check the recipient, network and fee

    The transfer is confirmed in your wallet. Before you tap “Confirm”, check the recipient (number 1), which should be the creator you are watching, and the network (number 2), which should be the same as on the donation page.

    Vantemio charges a single fee of 1%: the creator receives 99% of the amount in the same transaction (number 3). The network fee is taken by the blockchain itself, and your wallet shows it. If everything is correct, tap “Confirm” (number 4).

    Important. Confirming a payment never needs a recovery phrase. If a page or “wallet” asks for it, you are on a fake site.

    Understand where the money goes

    The contract splits the donation immediately (number 1): 99% goes to the creator’s wallet and 1% to the platform. The fee is the same for all creators.

    You pay the network fee (number 2), and your wallet shows its size before you confirm. Vantemio does not hold the money: it is never in the platform’s accounts.

    How a donation is split: 99% to the creator, 1% to the platform.
  5. 05

    Wait for the on-air alert

    Once the network confirms the transfer, an alert about your donation appears on the stream (number 1). This usually takes from a few seconds to a few minutes, and longer for Bitcoin.

    Before it goes on air, Vantemio checks the transfer: the wallet is checked against sanctions and block lists, and only real USDC, SOL and BTC are counted. A risky transfer does not go on air and is sent to moderation.

Common mistakes and what to do instead

Scanning a QR code from the comments

Only the code from the creator’s broadcast: someone else’s code leads to someone else’s address.

Choosing a coin you do not have in your wallet, or a different network

Check that your wallet supports the chosen network and holds the coin and enough for the network fee.

Confirming without looking at the recipient

Check the recipient and the amount on the wallet screen.

Expecting an instant alert

The alert appears after network confirmation, which can take a few minutes.

Test yourself

Answer in your head first, then reveal the answer.

1Does a viewer need a Vantemio account to donate?Answer

No. Your own crypto wallet is enough: the payment is confirmed in it.

2How much does a creator receive from a 10 USDC donation?Answer

9.90 USDC: the Vantemio fee is 1%, and the viewer pays the network fee separately.

3The donation page asks you to enter a recovery phrase. What does it mean?Answer

It is a fake page. Close it: a donation never needs the phrase.

In short

Scan the QR code from the creator’s broadcast, choose a coin and amount, check the recipient, network and fee in your wallet and confirm. The creator receives 99% at once, and the donation appears on air after network confirmation and checks.
